Online Interactive Figures

This document is an online supplement to the following manuscript:

Grenié M., Bruelheide H., Dawson W., Essl F., van Kleunen M., Kühn I., Kref H., Pyšek P., Weigelt P., and Winter M.. Gaps in global non-native plant trait data and how to fill them. EcoEvoRxiv preprint: https://doi.org/10.32942/X2FH0T

It aims to provide some interactive figures to make easier exploration of the data produced in the paper. It also displays the trait description network that links all the trait concepts across databases and let users download the table behind the trait description.

Extended Figure 2 : Trait availability across taxonomy

This is an extended version of figure 2, presenting the trait combination availability across the different plant families. This figure is a treemap, where each area represents the proportion of non-native species with the given trait combination. The taxonomical families are ordered by the number of non-native species in our dataset. This extended figure uses plotly and help you explore the dataset and export a snapshot of the plot.

Trait concept network

We here present the trait concept network we used to combine the trait datasets. This is the table presented as Table S1. Basically this is a combination of the trait concepts from AusTraits, BIEN, GIFT, and TRY. The trait are matched based on the Austraits Plant traits Dictionary (APD) and manual matching. Then all the traits concepts that in the same connected component of the network are considered identical. Here we aren’t showing the network graphically because of performance issues for moderately large networks (~3000 nodes and ~2000 edges). We’re interested showing the collated table version which contains the following columns:

• component, number of the connected component the trait name network ordered by size.
• consolidated_name, automatically assigned name of the component for understanding.
• component_size, size of the connected component in number of nodes (= trait names)
• austraits_trait_name, trait name provided as in AusTraits.
• bien_trait_name, trait name provided as in BIEN
• gift_trait_name, trait name provided as in GIFT corresponding to the “Trait2” level.
• try_trait_id, trait id as provided in TRY TraitID column

The buttons allow you to directly download the entire table.
